After more than three decades working in corporate environments, I retired to write novels, something I had been thinking about doing my whole career. Getting the rather late start in life as an author, I published my first book at the age of sixty-two. I've published seven books since then with another two in the works. In the beginning, I made many mistakes trying to get established as an author, and I hope my soon-to-be-released book How to Write, Publish, and Promote a Novel helps others avoid making the same ones.
I grew up in an old Victorian home in northern Illinois, complete with a coach house, the same house I used as the setting for my first two books. After living in downtown Chicago for almost 30 years, I moved back to northern Illinois, into a cozy house on a small lake, where I enjoy all the native wildlife who come for frequent visits, and where I continue to write literary fiction.
